摘要:

The development of Marital Health as a bona fide health field is posited as the most viable means for obtaining funding for training, research and treatment concerning the marital dyad equal to such funding now available for other health fields. Obstacles to this development include (1) the failure to differentiate between the concepts of “healthy marriages” and “marital health as a health field,” (2) the erroneous assumption that marital health already exists as a health field, (3) the preindustrial myth of naturalism, and (4) criticisms of the health model that are based on the search for value‐free models and te

摘要:

This paper reflects the thoughts, observations and clinical experiences of the authors and two dozen of their colleagues in treating people involved in an assortment of non‐marital sexual relationships. The scant existing literature is alluded to when pertinent. Ten types of non‐married couple and group sex patterns and four special kinds of relationships that are of particular interest to therapists and to which they might find themselves peculiarly susceptible are described. Similarities between the philosophies, treatment approaches and referral patterns to psychologists and clergymen are elucidated; major differences are highlighted. One conclusion is that there is a need for much research into what constitutes effective treatment for people living alternate lifestyles to monogamous uni

摘要:

This paper discusses the functionality of the linguistic code in the communication processes of a family in a crisis situation and in need of concealing its plight. Basic concepts of verbal interaction are discussed to show the difficulties of any open exchange of messages within a family with a dying patient. The paper concludes with two observations from a case study.

摘要:

Traditionally, the mother received custody of the children unless she was clearly proven to be “unfit.“ The “unfit mother” concept has been superseded by a doctrine which would indicate that either parent has an equal right to custody, and the proper measure is what is in the “best interest of the children.” A father who seeks custody faces unique problems which the mother does not face because of her personal familiarity with the children, their needs and activities. Educating the father to fulfill these needs and to develop proper parenting skills is the role of the marriage and family counselor. Proving to the judge or jury who should be custodian is the duty of the lawyer with the guidance of the counselor. This article suggests areas which should be familiar to every father who is preparing for trial and provides a checklist for objectiv

摘要:

The pilot study presented in this paper focuses on the relationship of life event stress (as measured by the Holmes Social Readjustment Rating Scale) and the incidence of marital dysfunction. It was found that those couples in which one or both partners were receiving marital counseling had experienced a significantly greater amount of life stress events during the previous 12‐month period than had couples who were not experiencing marital dysfunction. The discussion includes a theoretical examination of the life stress event/marital dysfunction relationship, as well as implications regarding the use of this scale by the counselor for preventative and intervention purpose

摘要:

This approach to working with families under stress recognizes the family as a system interacting via communication patterns among its own members and within a larger context of peers, neighbors, school, work, and community agencies. The goal is to help the family become a support system for all its members, more capable of meeting both adult and child needs for ongoing socialization and personal growth. The model is educational in that the focus is on teaching the family to identify strengths as well as dysfunctional behavior, and to acquire some basic communication and problem‐solving skills. Methods are both cognitive and experiential. The approach is useful in short‐term therapy with single families or groups of famil

摘要:

The efficacy of training as a mode of treatment has been tried in many settings with a variety of populations. This study utilizes assertive training as a mode of treatment. The effects of a four‐week assertive training program were measured by several instruments including the Hippie Interpersonal Relationship Rating Scale, Wolpe‐Lazarus Assertive Inventory, and Content Inventory. Results indicate assertive training as having both positive and negative effects as perceived by trainees and their spouses. The variance in rating indicates the need to include a trainee's significant other in some phase of train

摘要:

Two hypotheses related to the conceptualization of marriage as an interaction relationship and marital dysfunction as interpersonal pathology were tested empirically. Thirty first‐married couples asking specifically for marital counseling from a community counseling service were administered Cattell's Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire. Husband and wife inter‐correlations on each of the 16 first order and 2 second order factors were derived. Male and female mean sten scores on Neuroticism and Psychoticism were also derived. Data analysis revealed support for the second but not the first hypothe

摘要:

“Living together” is examined not simply as a new cultural variant or trial marriage but as the effort of some young adults, particularly on campus, to deal with several fundamental aspects of moving from childhood to adulthood, or an additional “rite de passage.” It seems that increasingly many young people are trying to deal with the tasks and marked discontinuity in our culture between childhood and adulthood by this new open arrangement. To evaluate and respond appropriately to this transitional solution, the adult community‐college authorities, parents, counselors, and others‐might find it helpful to view holistically the many developmental tasks which must be dealt with simultaneously during this process. So viewed, “living together” can be seen as a creative solution for some rather than as “mora
